The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

The entire house was shaking, the windowpanes rattled, and dust fell from the ceiling. Su Mu felt the ground beneath his feet tremble; the tremor was far more intense than when the grenade exploded.

The two of them stood up instantly, their expressions changing simultaneously.

Su Mu rushed up to the second floor in three strides, with Lin Yuwei following closely behind.

I opened the window and looked in the direction the sound was coming from...

A huge fireball is rising from the direction of the amusement park.

Thick smoke, carrying flames, shot straight into the sky. Through the dark gray smoke column, fragments of the building could be vaguely seen flying. The shockwave from the explosion bent the surrounding trees askew, and even from this distance, Su Mu could see the dust rising up.

What exploded?

It wasn't a hand grenade, nor was it ordinary explosives.

That commotion was at least at the missile level.

In the distance, the zombies that had been scattered everywhere seemed to have been switched on, surging towards the amusement park in unison. On the streets, in the woods, and in the ruins, gray-white figures emerged from every corner, converging into torrents that rushed toward the center of the explosion.

Su Mu and Lin Yuwei exchanged a glance, both seeing the same thought in each other's eyes...

Whatever it is, it's none of their business.

"Get down!" Lin Yuwei turned around first. "Finish the decomposition quickly and head north!"

The two rushed downstairs and pounced on the Santana.

The breakdown progress bar has reached 97%.

Su Mu stared intently at the number, glancing out the window out of the corner of his eye. The zombies on the street had mostly left, but a few scattered gray-white figures could still be seen moving in the distance.

98%.

99%.

100%.

[Decomposition complete]

The two beams of light vanished from the car at the same time. Su Mu now held five heavy metal blocks and an engine weighing approximately fifty kilograms.

[Received: 5 Steel Ingots]

[Received: Car Engine ×1]

He quickly stuffed the steel ingots into his backpack and lifted the engine with one hand.

His strength has now reached 56 points.

It can carry a load of 560 jin, or 280 kg.

As long as the load on your body does not exceed 140kg, your speed will not be affected in any way.

On the other side, Lin Yuwei also had five steel ingots and a gearbox that was larger than her upper body.

That thing weighs at least thirty or forty kilograms.

Lin Yuwei's expression changed. She grabbed the gearbox with both hands, her face turning red, but she couldn't lift it at all.

Without saying a word, Su Mu walked over, picked up the gearbox with one hand, and tucked it under his arm.

"run!"

He gave a low shout and rushed out the door first.

Lin Yuwei paused for a moment, her gaze falling on the gearbox weighing at least thirty kilograms under his arm, then on the bulging backpack on his back, and the engine he was carrying in his hand.

Just how strong is this guy?

She quickly did the mental calculations... The engine weighed at least 50 kilograms, the gearbox at least 30 kilograms, and with the supplies in his backpack, it must have weighed at least a hundred kilograms. But he ran as if he were carrying two bags of rice, with long strides and a fast pace, completely unaffected.

Hundreds of kilograms means at least two hundred pounds of force.

Converted to attribute points, that's at least 20 points of Strength.

That's not right either. 20 points is the maximum load, and the movement would be very slow. The fact that he can still run proves that he is only carrying less than half the load, which means that the opponent has at least 40 points of strength.

Based on his previous performance, this guy is likely level 2, but is level 2 such a big improvement?

Thinking takes only a moment.

Seeing that the other person had already run far away and had no intention of waiting for her.

She gritted her teeth and quickened her pace to catch up, no longer thinking too much about it.

......

The two followed the planned route, avoiding the areas densely populated by zombies, and ran frantically towards the evacuation point to the north.

Along the way, they encountered several lone zombies. Su Mu didn't even put down the engine; with the gearbox and starter in his left hand and a large wrench in his right, he casually swung it...

puff!

The wrench struck the zombie precisely on the temple, the sound of bones shattering clearly audible. The zombie didn't even have time to scream before collapsing to the ground.

[Kill a Lv1 zombie, experience points +0.1]

They didn't stop walking the entire way.

Lin Yuwei followed behind, watching him wrench one after another without even turning his head, without even aiming, and her heart was filled with shock.

This person... she didn't feel anything when there was a gun, but now that there are no bullets, she can kill zombies instantly with just a broken wrench?

Moreover, every strike hits a vital point with unbelievable accuracy.

She suddenly felt a sense of lingering fear.

If this person harbored any ill intentions during previous transactions or interactions...

She dared not think any further.

......

The sun began to set in the west, and the light turned a dim, yellowish hue.

The two finally reached the retreat point to the north...

In a corner of a dense forest, a vortex-shaped portal floats silently on a hillside, its edges shimmering with a dark purple glow.

Su Mu put down the engine and gearbox and let out a long breath.

"arrive."

Lin Yuwei breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak...

"Hey, I told you to wait a little longer, here comes the fat sheep!"

A slick voice came from the stairwell.

Su Mu turned his head to look.

Five men filed out of the stairwell, blocking the way downstairs. The leader was a bald man with a scar on his face, a burly build, and carrying a steel pipe. The four behind him were also burly and broad-shouldered, clearly working together.

The bald man glanced at Su Mu, then his gaze fell on Lin Yuwei. He looked her up and down, a smile that made people uncomfortable curl up at the corner of his mouth.

"Open the bag, let us check it." The bald man weighed the steel pipe in his hand. "Hand over half of the supplies, and we'll let you go. Be smart, don't force us to take action."

Lin Yuwei's expression changed, and she subconsciously reached for her waist... but it was empty.

All the grenades were given to Su Mu.

She looked at Su Mu, gesturing for him to take out the grenade as a deterrent.

She was stunned when she saw it.

Su Mu had somehow managed to grab a grenade in his hand.

But his hands were behind his back, hidden tightly, and didn't look like he was going to use them to intimidate anyone.

What alarmed her even more was that the safety ring on the grenade had been removed.

His fingers pressed tightly against the safety lever, his thumb hooked onto the pull ring, his posture exactly the same as when he threw the grenade.

He is counting.

Lin Yuwei heard his lips move, silently uttering a few numbers...

three.

two.

Su Mu glanced at her.

His gaze was calm, as calm as if he were asking, "What should we eat tonight?"

"Lie down."

The sound wasn't loud, but Lin Yuwei heard it very clearly.

Before her brain could process what was happening, her body reacted first... and she fell to the ground.

She only realized what he meant when she lay down: Why did I listen to him?
